The series that refuses to die is still lurching forward. Yay? The basics for posting: talk about casting is okay. If you get result spoilers, please create a separate thread for them. Here's the list from Vevmo, with filming to start in mid-October: Le sigh. Now I wish I had talked to Nicole at the fair and tried to talk her out of doing this. "I love you, but it's hard to defend you when you're so damn thirsty! Also, if you get hurt again, I know people who will throw a small party to celebrate that. Seriously . . . . a big cake with a picture of you writhing in pain on it." Also, I'm guessing Johnny's gig on 1st Look will have been completed by then, in the sense where all the pre-recorded stuff is in the can, like his run on American Ninja Warrior. Or next week, when a bunch of drag queens make him over at DragCon. I'm really hope this isn't the official "locked and loaded" list. Aside from Aneesa and Nicole, everybody is on this season. Well, maybe not Nany. Really, I can't tell the girls apart anymore. I try to look on the bright side . . . maybe someone will finally choke out Paulie. Fingers crossed! And here's another list: Great, Jessica gets to fuck up another series, after she and Cody lucked into winning The Amazing Race. Super. I don't know the other names, (blanking on Josh), but I'm assuming they're assholes as well. Has anybody out there heard anything about S33? Post it here!

Yaaaaaaaaaaay. ??? Heads up . . . Johnny’s hosting gig on 1st Look begins tonight.

FXX put out a "For Your Consideration" reel for Dee. I was thinking of my "Ten episodes, ten separate actors playing Dennis" idea. Here's the advanced idea: Kaitlin Olsen playing Dennis. Or, even better: Kaitlin playing Dennis like Dee would play Dennis. You know: comically horrifying.

Here's a teaser from Toonami for Boruto.

Here's a trailer. I honestly thought it wouldn't have popped up until tomorrow night. Boruto is Naruto's kid, BTW. I'm thinking that when you first see that name, you think "Borat." "Here's my Sexy Jutsu. Is nice, yah??"

Yeah . . . through the mail. The guy was kinda creepy. He’s probably nice, and it’s an unintentional creepy, but handing out stuff to kids looks sketchy as hell.

Yeah, Kennedy should be roasted more often. I inflicted her on myself back when she was hosting a recap show on Fox Reality. Nice to see she can be considered living in an alternative nation. If your parents are Generation X, that can explain that joke. I liked Chuck Jones (wait, he not the cartoon guy?) and how folks in the same demographic are realizing they were sold a bill of goods. I forgot about that Ted Cruz clip. Why isn't it shown more often?

That should be the new series title. “Previously, on Goodness, These Bitches . . .” And that word should apply to most of the guys as well, regardless of sexual preference.

Toad. From the Super Mario series. Thanks, Stormy!! Only bright side is Trevor can now mention the recent Batman comic book with a full frontal scene. It was aimed for mature readers . . . but it’s still Bat Dong. I ain’t looking at that, but I’d imagine it doesn’t look like a sentient mushroom. All I remember about Hatch was in a year-in-review TDS special, where Lewis Black comes out of a sound bite with, “Oh my God, I agree with Orrin Hatch! And for that alone, Clinton should be impeached!”

I’m not rooting for anybody. It’s much easier that way. Maybe if I root for Redemption House collapsing, with Paulie and Natalie inside it?

It’s basically Naruto: The Next Generation, with the knucklehead as a grown Hokage, and most of the cast married off to each other with kids.

Pop Team Epic grew on me. It really did. Once again: should we make a forum for Boruto, or should it only get a thread on the existing Naruto forum?

Oh, snap! The Gang went to the Super Bowl!! They didn't watch the game and riot in the streets of Philadelphia, overturning cars and climbing up greased poles. Nope . . . they went to Minneapolis to see the Eagles win their first-ever Super Bowl. Is it fucked up that was the part of this episode that hyped me the most? I get it . . . lots of studios are doing stuff that are basically "Core Concept, But With Women," and that triggers a lot of people, but not in terms of cynicism. Boggs II is basically a metaphor for that, and it stands on its own as a good episode. But . . . the Gang went to the actual Super Bowl, and they probably caused so much havoc. And they had a run-in with the Waiter/Drink Slave, which only adds to the hype that episode will get. Shit, it might be a two-part finale with most of the tertiary people crammed in that, along with Dennis revealing how he left North Dakota. Also, maybe the Dennis Fuck Doll. I should've guessed that Mrs. Kelly would "win," and she'd end up on the same baseball field as her boy did, alongside Mrs. Mac. Gail the Snail was an unpleasant surprise. Of course she's be in first class and out-drinking Dee . . . because the show thrives on the misery of its lead characters, and Gail the Snail is just that much The Worst. Even worse than Waitress getting hammered enough to get horned up and bang Frank in the lavatory. He also bangs Mrs. Kelly,, because of course he does and Mrs. Kelly puts out easily enough. How did Artemis cause a massive puke fest? I missed that part. I also like how she was more into selling her bullshit stuff. BTW, great timing showing a commercial of The Cool Kids with Artemis in there. Synergy!! Nice job dropping in Martina into Dee's drunken haze. I wonder if the real deal was asked. And, natch, Boss Hogg returns. That was also funny.

I can't tell which of these idiots is fighting anymore. It's a blur to me at this point. If I see hair dye, I know it's Cara Maria. That's how inattentive I am these days. To review: "Killer Kam" lets herself and Kayleigh down, and they go to Redemption Island House, where Kayleigh and Natalie fight over the whole "throwing of the clothes" thing from Vendettas. Fights break out at the Main House, and I don't remember who was involved, other than that I wasn't rooting for anyone at all. The gang actually competes in a terrifying mission involving making a rope bridge thousands of feet in the air. Tony & Johnny are the only ones to complete it, so we know next week is gonna suck a copious amount of ass. Sadly, some teams basically punk out, and Teege reads them the riot act. Under normal circumstances, I roll my eyes as Teege lips off . . . but, see, there are zero consequences for giving up this season. Second place is basically the same as last. Only the winners are safe from the vote, and everybody will throw out burn votes in order to not put up in an Armageddon. A bunch of testers managed to finish in ten minutes, and a few of them were shorter than Cara Maria? Good for them, but STFU, Lavin. Seriously. A trained monkey could do your job, given the people he'd have to deal with.

"Ha ha ha!!!! You can go home again!!!"

Well, when Epic Voice Guy puts it like that . . . yeah, it was a dumb movie. Heh. “Billy Quizboy.”

@TheRabbi . . . I’m just ready for any result, from “TAR gets two guaranteed seasons a year and more of a push from the network” to “New boss blows up reality slate, established shows float in the abyss.”

ANW got denied at the Emmys again. If you need to be cheered up, here are some of the T-Rexes seen on the show.

Watching the Emmys. Still hoping us TAR fans can meet up in the future. I wouldn't even need an episode or ex-Racers. Just hang out, shoot the shit, and have some fun.

. . . . aaaaaaaaaaaand Emmy denied. Again. Yeah, I know, I can't judge Rupaul's Drag Race because I've never watched, but I kinda yearn for TAR getting the win every year . . . .even in a season where a fucking Big Brother-spawned team that had zero business racing winds up winning. While I'm thinking about it . . . you think the Moonves departure might affect TAR in either way? Seriously, we might get a situation where at least of two of CBS's Big Three get wiped out, if not just one. Seriously, why doesn't Phil get nominated for Best Host?!? I mean, awesome that Probst doesn't get nominated anymore, but I don't think Phil has ever been considered. I'm too lazy to look it up.

I jumped off after Priest's run on Black Panther. Is Erik alive in continuity right now?

Rick and Morty will be showing up on the Emmys broadcast soon. ETA: And Rick goes off-prompter. Shocker. ?

In that world? Yeah, especially if the new technology is courtesy of Rusty Venture. Yes, the teleporter worked great (except for Ramburglar getting decapitated), but it probably twists the testicles of every third guy that uses it. This week's t-shirt: The Illimina-Tee. That actually looks cool, to be honest.

CBS.com offers up a "Blindside Bracket."

As much as I like seeing what Rusty and Malcolm (can we call him that?) do when they can’t fight each other, we got three more episodes left. Anything that doesn’t get resolved will have to wait for a long time. Nice to see Brock killing again . . . though I’m betting a knife to the head wouldn’t deter Presto Chango that much. Does Mark Hamil ever get tired of voicing evil clown-types? The Stairmaster bit was inspired. Had to rewind to see that again. Gathers had a good point about not upsetting the status quo, but Rusty is downright myopic. Of course he’d eventually throw himself into the orgy. And, of course, it was a simulation. Does Monarch remember the time Copy Cat swiped his outfit, darted him, invaded the Venture compound, pissed on the furniture, and his wife thought he did that? I’d think Monarch would hold a grudge. Also: if CC (funny on many levels) is a bad guy based on Dean Martin, will we be getting a Jerry Lewis?
